I noticed a bit of lite blue exhaust coming from my tailpipe when I first started my car, which I hadn't driven for about two days, after a long trip.

Someone mentioned to me that this might be because I have oil in my combustion chamber.

I hadn't really noticed this before, and after I got back home from a trip, let my car sit for about 24 hours, when I pulled away I saw about 2 tablespoons of oil on the ground, about 1.5 feet in from the right front wheel. Though I didn't see any exhaust problems.

Finally, right before the trip I had my oil changed. They mechanics, who I trust, said they hadn't seen any leaks, and I've been driving it very lightly.

Does anyone know if a bit of blue exhaust is normal? If I should be concerned? How I should resolve the issue? What to look for? Etc.

Any advice/suggestions would be great. Thanks!
